So I have (finally) started a new IG page. I go to import pics from dropbox, they look great, then I get to the filter page and the colors are wiped out of the image.
Is there not a way to disable this destruction? Having to manually/arbitrarily increase saturation in IG seems crazy. Maybe I just don't get it, but I hate how it kills the photos.
Google has provided no helps, so here I am. Surely I am not the only one that is frustrated by this.

skip that filter shit

- There is no option to skip. It goes directly to the selection for filters, but it wipes colors immediately. I hate them all!formed
- Could it be stripping the colour profile? Try applying the profile in PS and upload again.monNom
- huh, I'll try that. They are AdobeRGB, I thought IG accepted that now, I'll try srgbformed
- you're doing it wrong, you can absolutely choose "no filter"... 1st optionhorton
- ... or "normal" to be accurate. Should be zero colour shift. Although never tried anything other than sRGB.horton

Here is a good read about the magic of Facebook's stupid c2 profile and one how to counter it:

are your images in sRGB ?

and like mekk said, dont upload large images, downsize them to the max suggested by Instagram. otherwise your images will look like sh1t on some platform.

Thanks guys! Resizing to 1080x1080 and converting to srgb and it works correctly - no adjusting needed. Doesn't make any sense, of course, but at least an easy fix.
